The international humanitarian system has, since the 19th century, been activated during large-scale disasters when the capacities of the affected countries are overwhelmed. It comprises international humanitarian organizations (IHOs) and is funded by a variety of donors. Recently, this system has faced increasing criticism, mainly because of its failure to empower and include local and national a

Att en parts språkbrister vid utsagor inför rätten kan inverka negativt på bevisvärderingen av dessa har berörts i doktrin. Någon utförligare behandling av det potentiella problemområdet har emellertid uteblivit i juridisk doktrin. Uppsatsens syfte är i enlighet därmed att undersöka om och hur en parts språkbruk inför rätten kan inverka på rättens bevisvärdering av den muntliga utsagan. För att upIn Swedish legal literature it has been mentioned that shortages in the defendant's or the plaintiff's use of the spoken language before the court, risk having a negative impact on the subsequent evaluation of evidence. However, this risk has not been subject to any thorough examination. With that in mind, the purpose of this thesis is to examine if and how shortages in spoken language of

Transdisciplinary research and collaboration is widely acknowledged as a critical success factor for solution-oriented approaches that can tackle complex sustainability challenges, such as biodiversity loss, pollution, and climate-related hazards. In this context, city governments’ engagement in transdisciplinarity is generally seen as a key condition for societal transformation towards sustainabi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodkärlens insida bekläds av ett lager platta celler, s.k. endotelceller. Syrgas, näring och hormonella signaler måste passera dessa celler för att nå ut till kroppens olika vävnadsceller. På endotelcellernas yta finns normalt strukturer som förhindrar att blodceller (vita blodkroppar och blodplättar) fastnar och därigenom underlättas blodflödet. Endotelcellerna bildarThe vascular endothelium is an important regulatory organ in circulatory physiology and plays a central role in the response to acute inflammation and ischemia/reperfusion. Activation and dysfunction of the pulmonary vascular endothelium are closely related to clinical findings of pulmonary dysfunction. The endothelial-derived relaxing factor, nitric oxide (NO), is a gas, which can be administered

Popular Abstract in Swedish Internet har under de senaste tio åren växt från marginalföreteelse till ett populärt och mycket använt medium. Många företeelser och tjänster tar steget över till Internet och bland dessa finns även journalistik. I fokus för denna avhandling står förändringsprocesser för journalistikens villkor, ideal och normer när nyhetsjournalistiken bedrivs på?Internet studerade utDuring the last decade the Internet has become a widely used source of information for the average person and also a publishing tool for media corporations. The transition of journalism from one medium to another is one with important implications as the world wide public consumption of online news grows. This dissertation puts focus on how journalistic content changes when it's published on the W

Inflammation is a physiological response that may go uncontrolled and thereby develop in a chronic way. This seems to happen in many common diseases of autoimmune, degenerative, or allergic character. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is by definition a chronic disease with an autoimmune inflammatory attack on diarthrodial cartilaginous joints. The development of new treatment neutralizing cytokines invol

It is shown that the isoscalar strength in the energy region just above the low energy threshold, which is created by exciting particles to the continuum in nuclei far from β-stability lines, can be reduced by the attractive coupling to isoscalar shape oscillations. This is in contrast to the well known fact that in β-stable nuclei low lying isoscalar particle hole strengths are always increased b

There is a class of oligodendrocyte progenitors, called O-2A progenitors, that is characterized by expression of platelet-derived growth factor &agr;-receptors (PDGFR(&agr;)). It is not known whether all oligodendrocytes are derived from these PDGFRalpha-progenitors or whether a subset(s) of oligodendrocytes develops from a different, PDGFR alpha-negative lineage(s). We investigated the re

Omdöme ”Teckenspråkiga döva” är en rik avhandling. Den innehåller spännande och djuplodande empiriskt material. Fredäng täcker samtidigt in ett stort fält från individnivå med familj och skola till lokalföreningar och riksorganisation och till hur samhället ställer sig i olika frågor. Det är sannolikt att de sociala typer som Päivi Fredäng tar upp, om hur döva ser på sig själva och sin dövhet l

Radiative lifetimes of 11 levels in Cd I belonging to the 5s5p ¹p^o₁ and 5snd ³D_1,2(n=6-9) and 5sns ³S₁ (n=7,8) series, and of 5 levels of Cd II belonging to the 4d¹⁰5p ²p^o_1/2,3/2, 4d¹⁰6s ²S_1/2, and 4d¹⁰5d ²D_3/2,5/2

This project explores how a beginner friendly music production device can lower the threshold for engaging with sound creation and rhythm making. Many existing tools rely on prior knowledge or technical skill, which discourages new users from experimenting in creative ways. This project instead focuses on quick feedback, clear interaction and a tactile experience that invites curiosity and play. T

Aims:Research on the role of art in alleviating mental health problems has increased dramatically. However, it remains unclear whether mental health benefits of the arts are the same across different social contexts of arts participation. The aim of the study is to investigate associations between two modes of arts participation, solitary and group-based, and psychological wellbeing (12-item gener

BACKGROUND: As the global population ages, the demand for palliative care is expected to increase. However, studies show that older patients often receive inadequate palliative care, partly due to healthcare professionals lacking sufficient training and tools to identify and address palliative care needs effectively. This study aims to explore healthcare professionals' experiences regarding facili

This paper presents the first performance results of the ALICE TPC Readout Control Unit 2 (RCU2). With the upgraded hardware typology and the new readout scheme in FPGA design, the RCU2 is designed to achieve twice the readout speed of the present Readout Control Unit. Design choices such as using the flash-based Microsemi Smartfusion2 FPGA and applying mitigation techniques in interfaces and FPGA

For patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NET), health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is important. Meanwhile, whether tumour volume is associated with HRQoL is unknown. Hence, the aim of this study was to assess if total somatostatin receptor expressing tumour volume is correlated with HRQoL in patients with metastatic GEP-NET. Some 71 patients were included in the stu

This chapter provides overview of fundamental definitions, tools and new methods towards improved channel modeling reported in the Co-operation in Science and Technology (COST)-Inclusive Radio Communications (IRACON) Action for future wireless communications and networks. The overview first covers definitions of propagation environments as they determine most relevant propagation mechanisms to con
